Bump.

[Carry_Okie]

Melson did not resign as some in the media are now reporting he was reassigned.

Yup. They're trying to confine it to Tuscon. Failing that, they'll try to confine it to the DOJ. It's part collusion, part denial, and part ideological complicity. What they may accomplish is to delay this thing until it blows up in Bammy's face next November. Issa isn't going away quietly, having dealt with the MSM's attempt to cut out his legs from under him fairly effectively, so far.

From article:

“Holder announced the resignation of Burke and the reassignment of Melson, praising them for their service. He did not mention Operation Fast and Furious.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Pete Williams reporting: “A senior Justice Dept official says in essence that the Atty Gen Eric Holder had lost confidence in the two of them [Melson and Burke] and that he thought a fresh start was what ATF needed here.”

Thanks for that link. Fresh start in a cover-up is more like it. Lost confidence in them covering for him is more like it.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

No one is paying attention to the Burke resignation or the terrorist sympathizer that is replacing Melson.

Just remeber Eric Holder and Obama were open to extradicting Bush and Cheney to Spain if charged with War Crimes...these pukes were all for international justice before they are against it (because they will be prosecuted).

[yoe]

Video in which Holder perjuries himself:

Hannity's videos on Holder's Fast & Furious:

(Sean Hammity:Operation Fast & Furious - A)

(Sean Hannity: Operation Fast & Furious - B)

(Sean Hannity: Operation Fast & Furious - C)

(Sean Hannity: Operation Fast & Furious - D)

(Sean Hannity: Operation Fast & Furious - E)

(Sean Hannity: Operation Fast & Furious - F)

Did Holder perjury himself? He was under oath....

Today: (Grassley, Issa Expand ‘Fast and Furious’ Investigation)

Old but relevant: ( Records show agents fired beanbags in fatal border gunfight)

[Dead Corpse]

Yeah... Let me know when they convene a Special Prosecutor and they start handing out indictments.

Until then, I've had about enough Kabuki Theater...

[az_gila]

IMO Grassley’s name is in this because a outside special prosecutor is coming quickly.

---

And at the rate Special Prosecutors work, we will have a report out in 18-24 months - after the next election.

“Stay on these criminals like white on rice” and like stink on s*** too!

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

Holder perjured himself but Obama hasn’t yet Holder works for and answers to Obama.Yet Obama knows if he throws Holder under the bus Obama is exposed in so many ways it would spin your head.So they are trying to do damage control and make one and make this guy the scape goat.NOTE CAREFULLY his resignation letter.(The second link) Fast and Furious is not mentioned. Very strange.
